Ever feel like the world is spinning out of control and there is nothing we can do to stop it? Especially with this being an election year, it feels like things are more and more wild out there.
How do we fix it? How do we protect our children from this world they are growing up in?
Reality is you cannot fix the world – but you can create stability in your own home. One of the best places to do that is in your marriage.
Strong marriage provides stability in your home.
How do we create strong marriages in our home? We will give you three words.
Forgive – in a marriage we must forgive every time. Forgiveness opens the relationship and allows restoration to happen.
Serve – We can follow the example of Jesus by taking on the role of a servant in our marriage. Laying our lives down in every area for our spouse.
Appreciate – we need to appreciate our spouse instead of trying to improve them. Appreciate means “raise in value.” By using our words to speak value into our spouse we help them see who they were created to be.
By implementing these three concepts into your marriage you will start to establish stability in your marriage therefore establishing stability in your family and in your kids' lives. When the world feels shaky, the best thing we can do for our family is to work and seek to create stability within our marriage.
